Depressing. With those mods and it's power I think it should have easily done a 1:40.

Ok so now that the pics are up I see this was on stock wheel/tires. I can now see the 1:45. The fast-ish times for a completely OEM S2000's were something like 1:43's.

It will be interesting to see what this can do with some real aggressive suspension and a new set of R-comps. The fastest Spec Miata time at PR is like a 1:39.3

The power to weight ratio of the Spec Miata is something like 1hp/18lbs (roughly), however the FRS is closer to 1hp/15-16lbs without any mods. I think with some proper sprint/dampers and some wider R-comps this car should be doing 1:37's without touching the engine.
